What's even the point of owning a console nowadays?
I have no idea why anyone in their right mind would own a game console anymore. Any and all advantages of owning one are essentially gone. A PC is in everyway a better option for people to own.
>Buh muh convenience
What convenience?
>I don't need to be at a desk
You can easily set your PC up in your living room and run it with a simple OS just like a console.
>I just need a disk to play my games
You still need to download gigs of patches day one. Why not just cut out the middle man and download the game on your PC since you have to do that for consoles anyways.
>I wanna use a controller
They've had Controllers for PC since the Amiga
>I'm too dumb to build a PC
You can buy and prefab
>I wanna play online with my friends
You can do that on PC and without having to pay for a gay service like Xbox Live or PSN
>Buh muh affordability
You can build a basic gaming PC with the same specs as a PS5 for cheaper not to mention it'll last longer and you don't have to pay for shitty online services via Microsoft or Sony.
>What about muh exclusives
Exclusives are retarded and even then Xbox exclusives launch on PC day one and Playstation can only afford to hold exclusivity for a couple months before the PC ports release

This is without even going into PC advantages like Modding, higher specs, and greater customization options.

I swear any and all advantages a console had died with the 7th generation.

You seem to be more interested in arguing with yourself so I don't see the point in replying.

99% less cheaters in multiplayer
way less stutter in ue5 games
only option if you want physical games
semi guarantee the game works where as with many (albeit shoddy) pc versions you get issues that aren't always easily diagnosed

I buy the gaming system to use it as a gaming system with nothing bothering on the background and playing games only avaiable in the platform I buy. Xbox and PS wouldn't understand lol
